Seroiusly, though, how much weight do mags save? 40 lbs. ? Just curious.

You know how you just want something? I just want mags. There was a thread a week or two back where rodneym weighed a Trigo and Halibrand and I think he came up with 2-3 lbs per wheel. Not only is it the weight savings, and weight savings is BIG "in my book", but it's also "the look" that no amount of paint can replicate. And it gets me ever so slightly closer to an original CSX3000.
